There seems to be something wrong with the updates for XP.
I get a popup box asking if I want to install the latest update.
Unlike normally, I get a choice of Express or Custom Install.
The problem is... that the update doesn't seem to get installed -
regardless of which option I choose for the install.
The popup for the install simply keep coming back.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

You are seeing the new Windows Update. There are Active X controls that
have to be installed before it will function properly. Verify that you have
allowed those Active X controls to load and it should work normally.
